Reported risk: Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics has confirmed a negative bias for ADVIA Centaur FT4 when used with Calibrator A kit lots ending in 90 on the ADVIA Centaur, ADVIA Centaur XP and ADVIA Centaur XPT Systems. In addition, Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics confirmed the potential for calibration failures due to above limit calibrator RLU %CVs when using Calibrator A kit lots ending in 90 with the FT4 assay. The performance of the FT4 assay when used with Calibrator A kit lots ending in 90 on the ADVIA Centaur CP System is not affected. Customers may continue to use Calibrator A kit lots ending in 90 for the ADVIA Centaur Systems FT3, T3, T4 and TUp assays.
